If you are like me and want to stay in a hotel that is in keeping with the locale and tradition of the city I am visiting, then this is a great option in Venice. The Accademia district is on the Vapporetto line and is a beautiful and quiet residential district. There is a great pizzeria across the canal and a great museum down the lane.
The hotel is not elaborate or particularly 21st century but do not let the "pensionne" in the name fool you, this is not a youth hostel. This is a beautiful hotel in a beautiful city.
Stay here!
